Carquinez Strait Regional Shoreline

Highlight • Trail

Carquinez Regional Shoreline, stretching across 1,568 acres along Carquinez Scenic Drive, offers a diverse landscape of bluffs and shoreline. Nestled between Crockett and Martinez, this park is a gateway to the river delta region in Contra Costa County. With rolling grasslands, wooded ravines, eucalyptus-shaded meadows, and stunning river views, it provides a scenic escape. Trails traverse open vistas, offering glimpses of Benicia State Recreation Area to the north and distant peaks like Mt. Tamalpais and Mt. Diablo.

Miles of trails climb up the ridges from here into the reserve. To get here start from the ridge, or use a bike: Carquinez Scenic Drive is closed to cars since landslides caused damage in the 1980s. The former road is a paved park trail from Martinez to the east, and a rebuilt excellent paved bike path to the west of the oil dock

As this Scenic Drive is a deadend for cars, ending halfway at Ozol, even this first section is a pleasant walk, without traffic and frequent vistas across the water.

Alhambra Cemetery and the adjacent St. Catherine Catholic Cemetery sit quietly on the hillside above Martinez, offering views of the Carquinez Strait and a glimpse into Contra Costa County’s early history. These historic burial grounds date back to the 1800s and include graves of pioneers, veterans, and local families.
